THE AMERIOUS DIALY TlMES-RECOK DER: FRIDAY. SEPTEMBER 25. 1891.
A CHARACTERISTIC LETTER.
Shut the door
against disease. Danger comes oft-
onest through impure blood. Keep
your 1 Mood in order, and you keep
in health. For this, nothing equals
Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discov
ery. It invigorates tho liver, puri
fies and enriches tho blood, and
rouses every organ into healthy ac
tion. By this means it cures. Ev
ery part of the system feels its
saving influence. Dyspepsia, Indi-
S cstion, Biliousness, Scrofulous,
kin aud Scalp Diseases — even
Consumption (or Lung-scrofula)
m its earlier stages, nil yield to it.
It’s tho only Liver, Blood and Lung
Remedy that’s guaranteed to bene
fit or cure, or tho money is re
funded. Trying terms to qell on
—but it’s a medicine that can carry
them out.
“ Golden Medical Discovery ”
contains ho alcohol to inebriate,
and no syrup or sugar to derange
digestion.
It’s a concentrated vegetable ex
tract; put up in large bottles;
pleasant to tho taste, and equally
good for adults or children.
This is the way
with the Ball corset: if you
want ease and shapeliness,
you buy it—but you don't
keep it unless you like it.
After two or three weeks’
wear, you can return it and
have your money.
Comfort isn’t all of it
though. Soft Eyelets, and
“bones” that can’t break or
kink—Ball’s corsets have

An Epistle from Jay Gould Written
Nearly Forty Years Ago.
About forty years ago tho staid Inhab
itants of central Now York took a great
liking to an active young surveyor who
lived in Roxbury, a small town in Dela
ware conttty. He arose early in the
morning and tramped over the hills ami
vales adjacent to where ho lived. With
his surveying instruments lie took meas
urements, made maps and found a ready
sale for the product of his activity and
brain.
Although lie was a small youth he had
a vigorous way aliout him thut pleased
tho slow going farmers and delighted
even tho loungers about the postoffice
and grocery combined, to whom he gave
•‘talks" on Saturday evenings.
When ho left the township and moved
away lor good the local prophets saw
great things in storo for him, and pre
dicted Unit some day ho might have
been a selectman of the village if he had
remained, hut they forgot him for years
and only recalled his presenco when his
identity with Jay Gould, tho famous
financier, was proved to their astonish
ment
Robert Fullerton keeps an “old curi
osity shop" on Third avenue near Eight
eenth street, where almost any queer
odd sort of thing can bo discovered.
Among tho treasures shown a reporter
was a letter written in 1851 by this same
young surveyor, who could now doubt
less cash iu his assets for a round f 100,-
000,000, if he felt so disposed. In spite
of the fact that Mr. Gould spelled “tres
pass," "liarometrical" and “damage” in
a unique way nnd scattered capital let
ters to suit himself, the letter looks thor
oughly bnsinesslike, and it limy bo pre
sumed that J udgo Sherman loaned the
"level" ho possessed, nnd that it was re
turned to him in proper condition.
Tho fact that even ns a young man he
was “connected" with the Newburg and
Syrncnso railroad showed his early long
ing for tho business in which he has
tuado himself known all over tho world.
“It’s curious," said Mr. Fullerton,
‘bnt yon will notico that ho was not
only connected with one road, but he
could not rest until ho had examined
another route through West Settlement
and Puses Brook. That he did things
thoroughly is evident The handwriting
is none of yonr offhand nlfairs, but ono
can see the exactness with which every
“t” is crossed and the care with which,
after the letter is written, words were
insorted to allow of no mistuke. The
politeness and anxiety in the last para
graph of tho letter proper are also appar
ent, sncli os an enthusiastic boy coaid
not fail to put in, knowing that a person
of Judge Sherman's position would bo
accustomed to respect as a judge.
“Ho was also careful to add ‘jndgo’ at
the beginning, so as to gi vo tho recipient
the thrill of pleasure popularly supposed
to mildly shock every person with
bundle to his name. A postscript always
adds to tho effect of a letter, for a man
who might throw away a begging epistle
cannot resist glancing at a postscript,
andtheofferof pay for the nso of the'
strument finished the note.
“He bnd evidently not Intoudod to
offer any money at first, but the thought
of a possible refusal and the need of an 1
other nppcnl probably settled the matter.
It could do no harm, unywny.’’—New
York World.
